 "(1) Israel is exercising its right to self-defense. (2) Israel pulled out of Gaza in 2005. (3) This Israeli operation, among others, was caused by rocket fire from Gaza. (4) Israel avoids civilian casualties, but Hamas aims to kill civilians. (5) Hamas hides its weapons in homes, mosques and schools and uses human shields." How many times have you heard these Hasbara generated cliches repeated on the US and UK media? Now sit down for a few minutes and read how Professor Noura Erakat one by one dismantles all of them and exposes the moral and intellectual depravity of Zionist propaganda--Professor #NouraErakat is a Palestinian American human rights attorney and as of Fall 2014, she is an Assistant Professor at George Mason University. She has taught international human rights law in the Middle East at Georgetown University since Spring 2009. She is also a Co-Editor of Jadaliyya--a leading online journal of critical thought on the Arab and Muslim world--and here is the link to Professor Erakat's responses: "Five Israeli Talking Points on Gaza—Debunked": http://m.thenation.com/article/180783-five-israeli-talking-points-gaza-debunked-- Enjoy, learn, spread the word!
